This is already available as MAILNAME XEDIT, part of the LNAME package.
The MAILNAME command is used while reading a piece of mail, not sending,
the default is to use the last name as the nickname, with the PROMPT
option allowing you to change the nickname.

I am also interested in this.   This is what I basically call REMAIL,
allowing the new recipient to reply to the original sender; whereas
FORWARD places the Resent- records at the top and the new recipient
replies to the Resent-From (or middle person).
